Larger market potential is a common reason for use of a product specialization approach.
1 What Is a Product Specialization Strategy?
Product specialization is one of several common target market strategies used by companies. It is an approach in which the company makes product research and development integral to marketing. It tailors the product's benefits to suit the needs of various target markets. Small businesses with distinct products can benefit from this approach, but small business owners must understand the typical disadvantages.
Tailoring products to multiple customer markets requires increased marketing and sales efforts, which inherently means larger staffs to carry out this functions. This is especially true for companies that not only use this strategy, but sell a variety of product lines. It takes more sales staff to sell products that are specialized for each particular market than it does to sell a standard product to multiple markets.
Related to the increased staff requirements are higher costs commonly associated with a product specialization strategy. Not only are there usually increased labor costs, but costs to customize products and research particular needs of each given customer market are expensive as well. Salespeople that sell to multiple markets also typically have to travel farther, which increases time spent traveling and costs associated with making sales. These higher costs mean the companies must generate more sales and charge higher prices to net profit.
When a company uses a product specialization strategy, it is inherent for branding that the development and marketing of the product remains consistent across all customer markets. If the company fails to deliver an effective product solution to a particular market segment, the negative damage to the brand's image can have effects across all of the company's customer markets. Thus, the company needs to maintain a consistent standard of quality and durability to maintain brand image.
Another challenge of a product specialization approach is that a company get can too focused on product research and development and fail to react promptly to changes in customer demand and interest. With more customer-centric approaches to targeting customers, the company is more likely to keep up with changes within the marketplace to know how to evolve products and market them in a way that satisfies marketplace expectations.

How is Pilates working for our clients?
"Three years ago I was introduced to Pilates and it has been life changing. Working with Kimberly for three years has taught me so much about my body and I love the feeling of strength and control in my core that I get from Pilates. As I have progressed in the Pilates program, I am amazed at how you can learn to control certain muscles in your body. Once you find that control, you can feel the difference between when you just 'do' an exercise vs. controlling the exercise. You soon become aware of every move you make. That awareness helps me get more out of not only my Pilates sessions, but also my day to day managing all of the tension that can be hidden in our muscles. Kimberly's team of instructors are patient, knowledgeable, challenging and inspiring all at once - Pilates has really changed my life."
"Something must be working because I could feel it in my abs last night and now as the day goes on, I can feel it more. I actually walked the parkway again today. Just had to share these happy thoughts.
All good stuff! I am being very conscientious when I stand, drive my car and even when I was walking today, so I just wanted to say thank you for teaching me some good habits. Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
for my health and body, and the friendship with you!"
"I absolutely LOVE this studio! So consistent are the workouts!"
"I was first introduced to Pilates by my physical therapist. For years I was in an out of physical therapy due to lower back pain The pain had been getting progressively worse and an MRI about a year ago showed several herniated discs with tears. Cortisone shots were offered as an option to reduce pain but I knew that was only a temporary fix. When my very wise physical therapist recommended I go to Kimmotion Pilates in Crofton I was intimidated. BUT I went and am very glad I did. I have been attending Pilates sessions twice a week for the past seven months with amazing results. My back pain has been greatly reduced and is only intermittent. It can be managed with ice or heat and, occasionally, ibuprofen. I am stronger, more flexible, and have better posture and increased stability . And as an added bonus I have lost six pounds and gone down a pant size!! I can't thank all the professionals at Kimmotion Pilates enough for their outstanding instruction and constant encouragement. Without Pilates I have no doubt I would be living in constant pain with a reduced quality of life and getting worse. Thanks, Kimmotion Pilates!! "

In these extracts the translator proposes to give some idea of the original material which this sub-commentary provides for the study of the Yoga Sutras. Purely technical discussions are not included. It is intended that the meaning should be lucid and clear to the general reader.
At the beginning of his sub-commentary, S'ankara compares the yogic methods to the four-fold classification of medical treatment. This is familiar in even early Buddhist texts, and it had been assumed that Buddhists adopted it from medical texts. But, as Wezler has shown, the four-fold classification does not appear in medical texts before about 200 AD. Vyasa in the second extract below reproduces the Buddhist simile, and S'ankara echoes it in the first two but the simile in the third one is perhaps original to this text.
We can note that S'ankara uses the term Samyagdarsana (right vision), a favourite word which appears repeatedly in the text, not so in Vyasa.
No one will follow through the practices and restrictions of yoga unless the goal and the related means to it have been clearly set out, and the commentator first explains what they were in the mind of the sutra author, so that people may be led to practise.
First as to the goal. The clarifying illustration is given in the form of medicine. In classics of medicine, the exposition is under four heads: illness, cause of the illness, the healthy condition, the remedy. Medical science further explains these things in terms of prescriptions and restrictions.
So it is in yoga also. The sutra (II.15) Because of the sufferings caused by changes and anxieties and the samskara-s (dynamic latent impressions) of them, and from the clash of the guna-s, to the clear sighted everything is pain alone corresponds to the first head (diagnosis of illness).
Kaivalya (Transcendental Aloneness) here corresponds to the condition of health, and so it is release which is the goal.
What produces this great mass of pain is Ignorance; what causes its annihilation is right vision.
As classics of medicine are in four parts: illness, cause of the illness, the healthy condition, and the remedy – so this work too has just four parts: samsara, cause of samsara, release, means of release.
Of these, samsara with its many pains is what is to be escaped; the conjunction of pradhana and Purusa is the cause of what is to be escaped; liberation (hana) is the absolute cessation of the conjunction; right vision is the means to liberation.
From the fact of pain in change and anxiety and samskara, it is demonstrated that the seed which produces this great as characterised by the guna-s and their qualities mass of pain, is Ignorance, and what causes its annihilation is right vision as its opponent. Since Knowledge (vidya) is based on things as they really are, it is only Knowledge that causes the annihilation of Ignorance which is based on things otherwise than as they are, just as the correct view of the thing as it is, the moon single, abolishes the view of a false thing, the moon seen double.
As accompanied by the fundamental cause of pain, taints and karma-s and their ripening, all is pain, and so it has been shown. The one who suffers from that pain is the man of clear sight (vivekin), and as such he is the proper object of a work on right vision (samyagdarsana-sastra) and not the other one, who accepts the very pain. He now seeks to illustrate the point by an example: As the classics of medicine are in four parts: illness, cause of the illness, the healthy condition, and the remedy.
As the classics of medicine are divided for teaching purposes into four: illness, cause of illness, the normal state of health, and the treatment for that purpose, and it is called four-fold as having these four parts of illness, etc., so in this work of yoga. There is samsara with its mass of pain; its cause is the conjunction of pradhana and Purusa arising from Ignorance; liberation from samsara so caused is the purpose of a work on right vision (such as this one); and there is right vision itself. With these four, this too is a system of four parts. Again it is four-fold because its subjects are divided in the four ways.
The wise have taught the performance of duties of caste, stage of life and so on, with their respective agents, experiencers, action, discipline and the related results. These are to be performed by those seeking the results, or by those who are fearful of committing sins. So it is like applying medical remedies. The teachings are like medical prescriptions in that it is for the sake of others that they are taught, in that they are relied on by informed people, and that in that they deal with things which the ordinary man would not come to know without being taught.
There are a few one line allusions to medicine such as that excess of space can be a symptom (II.19. p234).
S'ankara gives the four-fold classification briefly in his introduction to the Mandukya Upanishad. We may also mention that though the medical similes nearly always imply a favourable outcome in S'ankara's Gita commentary (II.40) he says that even a little practice of Yoga is never wasted, unlike agriculture where the efforts may produce no result, or medicine where the treatment may produce a result opposite to the intended one.
Previous to this sutra, degrees of effort have been spoken of: mild, moderate, ardent. Then in typical Indian fashion these three are sub-divided 3-fold: Mildly mild, Mildly moderate, Mildly ardent, Moderately mild, Moderately moderate and so on. The present sutra I.22 deals with the 3-fold levels of the ardent.
The Sankara comment evinces practical experience as a teacher. He knows the dangers of depression and over anxious fanatical practice. His reference to the samskara-s shows a trainer's familiarity with the mind as a living thing which cannot be changed too abruptly by surface manipulation; the underlying dynamic samskara-impressions need time (which may be short) to adjust.
(Vyasa) They may be mild or moderate or intense in their ardent energy, and so there is a further distinction. For the mildly ardent it is near: for the moderately ardent it is nearer: for the intensely ardent yogin who is practising intense methods, samadhi and the fruit of samadhi is nearest of all.
(Sankara) Even among these ardent yogin-s there are distinctions corresponding to whether their progress is slow or moderate or ardent, and this is a distinction of the samskara-s created by their previous practice of the discipline. For the highest of them, the attainment of samadhi is nearest at hand.
The purpose of the sutra is to fortify the enthusiasm of yogin-s in their practice. It is as in the world, where the prize goes to the one who runs fastest in the race. But again, by making it clear that (all) yogin-s whether slow or not do attain their aimed-at goal, it should arouse an undepressed spirit in them; those, on the other hand, who have become over-anxious as a result of fatigue from intense efforts, might lose heart (unless told the goal is near).
Yoga practice as a technique of meditation, under strict rules of morals, austerity and control of instinctive impulses, and generally with a religious background, is ancient in India. The aim is release from all limitations, including death. This is to be realized not by a physical or mental immortality, but by disentangling the true self- in this text called Purusa – from illusory identification with limitations. Then Purusa stands in its own nature, pure consciousness without the movement in consciousness called thought: this is release. In the philosophy of the Yoga school as it developed, it came to be called kaivalya or Transcendental Aloneness.
Such an ideal of release from the mind-cage is not appealing to the generality of mankind, who associate freedom with something like jubilation and triumphant states of mind. But the deepest tradition of what is now India always had a keen sense of the constriction of the body-mind complex. The yoga aspirant regards the man of the world, and also those aiming at supernormal enjoyments in some heaven, as prisoners simply wanting more prestige and space within the prison, or perhaps a better prison, but who have not realized that they are imprisoned. They are like the small children in a prison camp, who do not feel confined. Provided the food and affection hold up, and they are not frightened, their wishes do not go beyond immediate circumstances. They would not want to leave the place: it is home. But when they grow up, they feel the need to get out.
Still, the notion of a sort of mindless emptiness, which is the nearest most people can get to imagining consciousness absolute, is not attractive. Many yogic aspirants are thinking at the beginning of some of the supernormal powers and knowledge described in repetitive detail in the third part of these Yoga sutra-s (with the warning that they are sources of inevitable pain). The powers are presented in the text not to invite people to practise them, but because some of them may occur spontaneously in anyone practising meditation on the true Self. Unless a practitioner has had some warning that one of these may come to him, and that they are all limited and limiting, and further that the disastrous excitement they cause may throw him back into the whirl of futile desires for a long time, he can be held up for years, or even a lifetime.
In the Gita this is identification with the creator-Lord, also described at great length in the commentary to the five Yoga sutras here. It is quite different from the Transcendental Aloneness of the official Yoga school (to which, however, elsewhere he gives formal allegiance as a commentator on a Yoga text).
There has now appeared, unexpectedly, a sub-commentary which claims to be by Sankara, the great commentator on the Upanishads and the Bhagavad Gita, and the de facto founder of the non-dual Vedanta school. He lived about AD 700, and if this is genuinely by him it will precede Vacaspati's work by some 150 years, and thus be of great importance. It will be an unknown work, on the theory and practice of yoga, by India's greatest religious and philosophical genius.
Repetition (Uapa) of it and meditation (bhiivanii) on the Lord who is signified by OM. When the yogin thus repeats OM and meditates on its meaning, his mind becomes one-pointed. So it has been said: After OM repetition, let him set himself in yoga, After yoga, let him set himself to repetition. When OM repetition and yoga come to perfection The supreme self (paramiitman) shines forth.
When the yogin has thus understood the relation of the expression OM and its meaning, how does he attract the grace of the supreme Lord? The sutra says, Repetition of it and meditation on its meaning. Practice of repetition of OM, which is the expression of the Lord, taken as consisting of three-and-a-half measures (matra) or of three measures, is called japa; the repetition is either mental or in a low voice (uparpsu).
meditation on its meaning the meditation is setting the heart on the Lord, the meaning, who by the word OM has been recalled and brought into the mind. The words he should undertake are to be supplied at the beginning of the siitra. Yogin-s who are doing both attain one-pointedness of mind. He illustrates how the one-pointedness is the result of that worship by quoting the verse.
After OM repetition after repetition of the pranava syllable, his mind bowed before the Lord, let him set himself in yoga let him meditate on the Lord, its meaning. When his mind becomes unwavering from meditation on the Lord, the meaning, let him set himself to repetition let him repeat OM mentally. Mental repetition is recommended because it is closer to meditation (than is verbal repetition). The sense is that the mind must not run towards objects.
When OM repetition and yoga come to perfection when he is not disturbed by other ideas contrary to them, he is perfect in repetition and in yoga; by that perfection in repetition and meditation on the supreme Lord (paramesvara) the supreme self (paramatman) who stands in the highest place (paramesthin) shines forth for the yogin.
And what happens to him?
As a result of devotion to the Lord, there are none of the obstacles like illness, and he has a perception of his own true nature. As the Lord is a Purusa, pure, radiant, alone, and beyond evil, so the Purusa in him, witness of the buddhi, knows himself to be.
The commentary introduces this sutra with the words And what happens to him? The word And refers to the fact that one result, namely attainment of one-pointedness of mind, has already been mentioned in the previous siitra. And is there some other result for him, or is it perhaps one-pointedness alone? The sutra now says From that, realization of the separate consciousness and absence of obstacles. From that devotion to the Lord, there is realization of the separate consciousness: it is conscious of its own buddhi as separate, and so the self (atman) is called the separate consciousness. The realization of it is awareness of one's own nature as it really is.

I've completed another model! Last winter, my modelling took a turn for the nautical. I started a complicated project from my father-in-law, and picked up a simple kit while visiting my sister-in-law in North Carolina to work on as a break.
The complicated project was a (1974?) Revel Cutty Sark at 1:96 scale. It was originally gifted to my father-in-law by his father, and had been waiting patiently in the basement for someone to assemble it ever since. I said I'd do it, but that it belonged in Port Hope, so I'd be bringing it back when complete. Last winter, I got through most of the hull construction. It was very different from any of the other modelling I've done before – usually I don't take on projects that need much paint.
Now all that remains is taking the Cutty Sark back to Port Hope so it can take its rightful place in my father-in-law's garage. I just need to figure out how to get it there in one piece!

GameStop is a fucking jungle. Not necessarily that it is humid and green, more that it is claustrophobic and absolutely wild. Instead of skyscraping trees, there are walls lined to the ceiling with cases. Instead of moss, there is merchandise growing on every surface. Instead of rivers, there are poorly-construed aisles. But, just the same as the jungle, there are many animals.
There are many species to find in a GameStop. Among the most common are the Dude Bro and the Inaudible Nerd. The Dude Bro is known for coming in about once a year to pick up his new sports game. He "doesn't really game" but enjoys playing FIFA with his friends whenever he remembers he owns it. The Inaudible Nerd is in once a week, occasionally buying a game you didn't even know existed, then scurrying out the door, tail between his legs. Other common creatures include the Anime Enthusiast, the Exhausted Dad, and the Child-Who-Thinks-He-Should-Play-Grand Theft Auto- Even-Though-He-Absolutely-Should-Not.
Unfortunately, another common species of this dangerous wilderness is the Misogynistic Nice-Guy. These are the male customers who wander in every so often, and, whenever they see a female specimen working, they are compelled to ask the worst questions or give unwanted comments. Things such as "do you actually play games?" and "would you like my phone number?" A frequent misconception of the Jungle is that one of the rarest breeds of the forest is the Gamer Girl. The Nice-Guy likes to perpetuate the idea that women are not gamers. Or, not even people at all. These are the so-called men who complain all day that they don't have a girlfriend, but when they go home and play World of Warcraft only to find out a girl is playing too, they tell her to return to the kitchen or show them her boobs. Think this sounds over-exaggerated? It happened to me. I was thirteen.
Ever since gaming became an ordinary pastime, people have somehow assumed that it was only men partaking in it. This is simply untrue. The onset of gaming did not intentionally exclude women, but the industry did move in that direction. Women have always been gaming. Even if the depictions of gaming have almost never included us (especially not fairly), we have been here, we've always been here, and we always will be. However, due to the massive amount of sexual harassment and bullying women endure in the community, they have closeted themselves. Now, women masquerade as men online in the gaming world so as to avoid persecution and actually enjoy their hobby. I'll receive messages referring to me in male terms and, where I used to correct people in order to stand up for my gender, now I just roll with it. Instead of correcting people when they call us "dude" or "bro," we now respond in similar masculine vernacular. This turns into a vicious cycle, and quickly. Since women do not present themselves as women, men continue to believe that women are not part of the gaming community and are not taught to accept women into part of that schema.
However, even when women are brave enough to be open about their gender in the gaming community, they are met with unbearable hostility online. I have yet to actually witness such sexism in real life in regards to the utter nonsense men spew at female gamers. Slowly, women began to emerge in the gaming world despite the hardships inherent to doing so. Alas, in 2014, there was a movement called GamerGate that was just about harassing women in the gaming community with rape and death threats. The onslaught of harassment essentially halted any progress that had been made for women in the industry. The movement was really frightening for many women, even those who weren't originally involved with the journalism debate that started it. Really, GamerGate began with a slight upset in the news that a female gaming journalist may have been sleeping with a man to gain an advantage. The women of the community were outraged by this accusation, and a brutal war broke out online. Brianna Wu, a game developer, just made a comment about the movement noting how it was dominated by men. She was receiving threats the next day; she was then stalked and photographed. Years later, she's running for Congress and stated that it's easier to be a female Congressional candidate than a woman in the gaming industry.
Very slowly, gaming companies are making progress in incorporating women into games in a more realistic sense, rather than the hypersexualized model we see in the majority of games. I sincerely hope that as this continues, and that as more women enter the industry, men will begin to synthesize the idea of women and gaming, eventually leading to the simple idea that a woman can be a woman in gaming society. Someday, I hope to be able to enter the Jungle without my fighting gear and practical armor. Someday, I hope to enter the Jungle as just another species without being hunted.

Q: Unable to dequeue a cell with identifier "GroupMessageCell" I have two tableViews displayed within a tab. For the first one that opens, there is no error, but upon selecting the second tab, the error appears:
2016-05-17 21:07:23.730 FeastApp[11007:172938] *** Assertion failure in -[UITableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:forIndexPath:], /BuildRoot/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/UIKit_Sim/UIKit-3512.60.7/UITableView.m:6573
2016-05-17 21:07:23.736 FeastApp[11007:172938] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'unable to dequeue a cell with identifier GroupMessageCell - must register a nib or a class for the identifier or connect a prototype cell in a storyboard'

Even though I have set the row identifier as: GroupMessageCell:

within my nested TableView:

and class:
class GroupMessageList: UITableViewController {

    var getGroups: Firebase!
    var groups: [Group] = []

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        getGroupsWithMessages()

    }

    override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {

        super.viewWillAppear(animated)
    }

    // MARK: - Table View

    override func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
        return 1
    }

    override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {

        return self.groups.count
    }

    override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

        group = groups[indexPath.row]

        // Update the rows with the proper object
        cell.textLabel!.text = "\(group.groupName) \(group.groupID)"
        return cell
    }

    func getGroupsWithMessages() {

        self.getGroups.observeSingleEventOfType(.Value, withBlock: { snapshot in

            print(snapshot)

            for detailData in snapshot.children {

               // print(detailData.value)

               self.groups.append(Group(groupName: "test", groupID: detailData.key))

                print(self.groups.count)

            }

            self.tableView!.reloadData()

        })
    }
}

How can I prevent this error from occurring?

A: You have not set the class for GroupMessageCell
to do select storyboard and

and then

verify that Class GroupMessageCell
set identifier

A: Three Potentials Trouble Areas:

*

*Ensure the cell identifier is present - [Looks fine based on your details]

*Did you set the class of your TableViewController to GroupMessageList on the storyboard like so:

*Does the error still occur after you run Product > Clean.
Hope one of these helps!


Narcissus the boy was always looking at his own reflection in the pond, pondering his own beauty. Didn't work out so well for him, given that he was so enraptured with, well, himself, that he wasted away to death because he was never able to leave his own reflection.
In his place was born a narcissus flower, which is similarly beautiful but definitely not as vain. Make it yourself by watching this origami tutorial.

Alexander visiting the Ka'bah, a detached folio from an illustrated copy of the Shahnamah of Firdawsi on Collections Sphere from Khalili Collections
There was a sharp divergence in the Iranian tradition in the way Alexander the Great was presented. To the Zoroastrian magi he was the destroyer of their fire temples and the fabled palace of the Achaemenids at Persepolis. Under the influence of translations into Arabic of the highly-fictionalised Greek Alexander romance, he was identified with the Qur'anic prophet Dhu'l-Qarnayn ('he of the two horns'), with a universal mission to impose the monotheistic religion of Abraham. His journey to the Ka'bah was the first of his world journeys, when he declared himself master of Arabia and destroyed those who had distorted its religious tradition. Alexander is shown kneeling in prayer in front of the Ka'bah, having removed his crown. Pilgrims in white ihram garments stand beside him. The Ka'bah is draped in its black kiswah, with a gold-embroidered curtain and belt, its hem lifted to reveal the white lining – just as it is today during the Hajj.

PMG Chapter 1076: Yuan Fei Is Insane
"If we manage to go there, we'll become direct disciples!" the crowd was clenching their fists. Direct disciples… that was their dream. They would have the opportunity to receive the emperors' direct teachings. They would also be able to practice cultivation in much better conditions.
"I can only make it to the third level now so I still have to progress. I have to manage it like Lin Feng did and climb up the first nine groups of steps." thought many people. Indeed, the higher levels were difficult to climb. They were a bit envious, why could Lin Feng do it and not them?
"Brother, will we have the opportunity to become disciples of the first batch?" asked someone of the second batch.
"Of course you will. In Tiantai, everybody is treated fairly. If you are talented, there's nothing you can't do, but if you're weak, you will be eliminated. If someday, you manage to climb three groups of steps, you'll be able to eliminate those who can only climb the second group of steps and replace them. You will also be able to take over their palaces. If there are several people on one level, then their cultivation level will be compared and the weakest ones will be eliminated." said Mu Chen.
They had become imperial cultivation disciples of the first batch and could benefit from better things, but it wasn't fixed. They could be replaced if they didn't progress, then they would be eliminated.
"It's the same for everyone. Nothing is fixed. Things can change if you remain unchanged." continued Mu Chen.
How intense. What a pressure.
But pressure was the only way to progress. In order not to be surpassed and not to feel humiliated, they had to become stronger.
"Lin Feng had managed to climb up the ninth group of steps. Not only would he get better things to study, but also, it would be difficult for others to catch up with him and replace him.
Everybody looked at Lin Feng. Behind him was Meng Ba who had only climbed five groups of steps. Would he be able to catch up with Lin Feng at some point?
"Alright, take your keys out and go up without worrying. Lin Feng, you go first. Disciples of the Zun Qi layer, wait, you'll go up later." said Mu Chen.
Lin Feng took out his key and started going up the stairs. On the first level, he sensed nothing at all.
Thanks to his key, he was able to go up the stairs easily.
Lin Feng sensed nothing at all. Behind the second group of steps, there was no palace, only a road. On that road were many palaces. It looked like Tiantai. Those palaces were for people to practice cultivation. In those numerous palaces, there were probably many treasures to practice cultivation. Lin Feng could sense their energies.
The 81 palaces all had an incredible Qi. There were large differences between all those Qi though. The highest palace had the thickest and the richest Qi. Lin Feng could choose first because he had ranked first.
There was a lock, with his key, he could open it with the key he had obtained when going up the ninth group of steps.
He slowly opened the door. It was magnificent and luxuriant. In a flash, golden lights surrounded Lin Feng and he could sense an extraordinary Qi. He suddenly thought about many things.
Lin Feng smiled. He knew that that palace was his. Besides, no matter what, he just had to think about it and that palace could appear on any floor.
The other students chose their palaces too and decided to then all practice inside their palace.
The students of the second batch had to wait. They didn't have those palaces, so they were even more determined. They had to climb up the stairs and replace someone.
"Alright, practice here and make efforts to become stronger. You're students of the first batch, many people are observing you now. I hope that when you come back down, you'll have become incredible. Don't let Tian Long Divine Castle's disciples think they're right when they said you are weaklings." said Mu Chen seriously. They couldn't afford being humiliated because they were imperial cultivation disciples now.
"We understand."
Everybody nodded. They were now imperial cultivation disciples, everybody in Ba Huang Province thought they were strong and powerful. They couldn't disappoint those people.
"You follow me!" said Mu Chen to the Zun Qi layer of the first batch. They were already Zun cultivators so they had to go somewhere else. They didn't practice cultivation in the same way as Tian level cultivators.
Tiantai was now the imperial cultivation disciples' territory. They could benefit from everything there was to become stronger.
"Hehe, I'm coming too." said Yuan Fei trying and he stepped on the group of steps. Yuan Fei was very, very strong and his grandfather was the Great Ape Emperor. He had broken through to the same Tian Qi layer as Xuan Yuan, but he was infinitely stronger.
Yuan Fei went up to the third group of steps and didn't sense anything. Many people looked at him impressed. That was already the difference between them and him.
Everybody was captivated because of his social status. They wanted to see how many groups of steps he could climb.
At the fourth group of steps, Yuan Fei started sensing something. But he continued without hesitating.
Fifth group of steps, Yuan Fei roared and released energies, people who weren't far could sense those energies.
Sixth group of steps, Yuan Fei lived up to his status, he released an insane amount of Qi. He roared so loudly that the atmosphere became distorted, but it didn't stop him.
At the seventh group of steps, he looked like a gigantic gorilla, as heavy as a mountain. The crowd looked at him, astonished and their hearts were pounding violently.
At the eighth group of steps, Yuan Fei's blood started boiling. He was holding his wooden stick firmly and looked determined. The Earth and sky were emitting rumbling sounds from the pressure. His energies turned into bestial clouds. Mu Chen turned around and saw him, he was surprised. Like Lin Feng, he was defying the skies. Finally, he stepped on the ninth group of steps, completely relaxed!
His Qi disappeared and the atmosphere became calm again. The crowd was astonished, their hearts were pounding violently. They could still see him in their thoughts!

Research integrity online training for staff and students
The Epigeum Research Integrity online training course is a free training course for Warwick staff and students. Research integrity is relevant to all those involved in delivering, supervising, or supporting research at the University. The University as recommended by the Reseach Governance and Ethics Committee expects that all staff and students (and their supervisors) undertaking research in addition to research support staff (technical and administrative) complete the training.
Training for researchers
The University offers a wide range of training for researchers to enable them to carry out their duties and to develop their knowledge and skills throughout their career, repeating training where necessary to ensure that skills are kept up-to-date. Researchers should identify needs for training when they arise and report them to their manager or other appropriate person as identified by their department.
The Learning and Development Centre (LDC) is the staff training unit for the University. Learning and development is for every member of staff at the University. The LDC has a range of opportunities for staff and bespoke opportunities for departments. A number of departments also offer bespoke and tailored training for its staff, researchers and student and you are advised to contact your Head of Department or other appropriate person as identified by your department.
All new members of academic staff must attend the Introduction to Research at Warwick and Introduction to Research Supervision which are run by the LDC.
CRN West Midlands training opportunites
The Health Research Authority (HRA) offer free e-learning module for researchers, R&D staff, study sponsors, research ethics committee members and the wider research community.
Training for those undertaking medical research and/or research involving the use of Human Tissue:
The International Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and Medical Research Council GCP guidelines both state that "Each individual involved in conducting a trial should be qualified by education, training and experience to perform his or her respective task(s)." To comply with these regulations, all members of staff must maintain a complete record of their ongoing personal development to demonstrate that they are competent to perform duties appropriate to their role in each trial.
To comply with this principle, all members of staff must maintain a complete record of their ongoing personal development and training received to demonstrate that they are competent to perform duties appropriate to their role in each trial, whether this is general or trial specific training. Warwick CTU SOP 24 - 'Training Records' describes the procedure for setting up and maintaining a Personal Development Folder (PDF) to ensure that all training is documented.
It is compulsory for those involved in commercial medical research to have GCP training every two years. It is the discretion of the NHS R & D office to also make enquiries with researchers undertaking non-commercial research to establish whether they have received GCP training if they feel this requires evidencing by the researcher based on the research activity being undertaken
Training available from Warwick CTU
All staff working on clinical trials must be conversant with the principles of Good Clinical Practice (GCP). The Clinical Trials Unit offers a regular 'Introduction to GCP' seminar, available to all new starters and anyone within the medical school who are involved in research. Contact c.daffern@warwick.ac.uk for more information and the date of the next scheduled event. Researchers from other institutions are welcome to attend this one hour seminar at a cost of £25.00.
Chief Investigator (CI) Course
Warwick Clinical Trials Unit also offers a training course for Chief Investigators. This is a full one day course which is recommended for anyone acting as CI for a clinical trial sponsored by the University of Warwick. The day combines presentations and interactive sessions to cover all aspects of trial management from initial planning right through to closing a trial. To find out more about the CI course please contact Natalie Strickland, the CTU Manager, N.J.Strickland@warwick.ac.uk or Claire Daffern, the CTU Quality Assurance Manager, c.daffern@warwick.ac.uk. The Chief Investigators course is available to researchers from external organisations at a cost of £250.00.
Research and human tissue training
All staff and students undertaking research involving the use of human samples must be able to demonstrate their competency and be registered to do so. They must be familiar with relevant documentation and SOPs, undergo training and maintain a training portfolio.
Registration is a 3-stage process:
attendance at the training session with the DI – Knowing Your Responsibilities;
completion of the MRC e-learning module – Research and human tissue legislation;
completion of a Declaration of Registration. Please contact the Designated Individual (DI) to ensure you can be registered, failure to register may result in access to human samples being denied and delays to your research.
Other staff, for example, technical and administrative staff, supporting research involving human samples are also welcome to attend the in-house training session and may find it valuable to complete the MRC e-learning module. They may not need to be fully registered if they are not handling human samples. Please contact the DI for further information and advice.
For more information, see: Registration and Training. For further advice and guidance regarding the use of human samples, please contact:
Professor John Davey - Designated Individual, Human Samples Office
J.Davey@Warwick.ac.uk or 02476 968693
Training for Students
Student Careers and Skills at the University offers a number of training courses in Skills Development designed specifically for students, for example:
The Undergraduate Research Support Scheme (URSS) gives undergraduate students the chance to become directly involved in the research work of the University, experience what it is like to be a member of a research team and take part in cutting-edge research, under the supervision of an experienced research supervisor. Undergraduate students are invited to apply for a URSS bursary to gain insight into research work and develop valuable skills. The research project takes place during the summer vacation and can be done in the UK or overseas.

Extrasolar Planets in Multi-Body Systems: Theory and Observations
K. Goździewski, A. Niedzielski and J. Schneider (eds)
The Stability and Prospects of the Detection of Terrestrial/Habitable Planets in Multiplanet and Multiple Star Systems
N. Haghighipour
Institute for Astronomy and NASA Astrobiology Institute, University of Hawaii-Manoa, Honolulu, HI 96822, USA,
Corresponding author: nader@ifa.hawaii.edu
Given the tendency of planets to form in multiples, and the observational evidence in support of the existence of potential planet-hosting stars in binaries or clusters, it is expected that extrasolar terrestrial planets are more likely to be found in multiple body systems. This paper discusses the prospects of the detection of terrestrial/habitable planets in multibody systems by presenting the results of a study of the long-term stability of these objects in systems with multiple giant planets (particularly those in eccentric and/or in mean-motion resonant orbits), systems with close-in Jupiter-like bodies, and systems of binary stars. The results of simulations show that while short-period terrestrial-class objects that are captured in near mean-motion resonances with migrating giant planets are potentially detectable via transit photometry or the measurement of the variations of the transit-timing due to their close-in Jovian-mass planetary companions, the prospect of the detection of habitable planets with the radial velocity technique is higher in systems with multiple giant planets outside the habitable zone and binary systems with moderately separated stellar companions.

England Rugby Union Team
'He had me in tears... he can emotionally destroy you!' The inside story on England coach Eddie Jones by those who know him best
Rugby correspondent Simon Thomas discovers the truth about the man who hopes to spark an English rugby revolution
The real Eddie Jones
England coach Eddie Jones has had plenty to say for himself over the years, but what do the people who know him best have to say about him?
Rugby correspondent Simon Thomas has compiled the views of those who have known him as a schoolboy, a work colleague, a player, a team-mate and a coach.
Those who know him best recall his days as a hooker with Sydney club Randwick and a coaching career that has taken in spells with the Brumbies, Australia, the Reds, South Africa, Saracens, Japan and now an England team who are ready to do battle with Wales this weekend.
Prop Ben Darwin played under Jones for the ACT Brumbies and Australia...
"My relationship with Eddie Jones is not perfect. There are times when I absolutely despise the man. At the same time he's had more impact on more players in Australia than any other coach in the last 20 years.
"Sometimes you think you're going well and he'll say: 'You're not even at 50% of where you should be.'
"I remember a game where I scored a try and made some tackles. Eddie said: 'All that stuff you think is impressive doesn't impress me. You're not doing the little things you should be doing to be a Test footballer.'
"I've been in tears in meetings with Eddie Jones. I'm happy to admit that because a measure of you as a person is how you respond. What generally happens with an Eddie meeting is that you come out absolutely emotionally destroyed and you think: 'Am I going to quit?' After a while you think: 'I don't want to quit. I'll train harder and come back better.' He wants that.

Comment: England v Wales could be the rehabilitation of Craig Joubert
"On my first Wallaby tour I had played two Tests and at the end of the second Test, against France, Eddie pulled me into a room and said: 'I don't even know why I brought you over. You've just wasted my time. I don't think you're up to this.' He was right.
"I had played crappily, but if he was tearing strips off you it meant he saw something in you. By the time I got to 2003 I was a far better player having been emotionally destroyed by him.
"He wants you to go back and challenge yourself. But, certainly, he made it personal. There's a guy called Jim Williams and Eddie absolutely destroyed him in front of his team-mates.
"Jim eventually played for the Wallabies and coached Australia as an assistant. There's a huge record of guys Eddie has done that to. But some are broken by it and never come back."

Analysis:Where England v Wales will be won and lost
Former full-back Glen Ella who attended the same south east Sydney primary school as Jones and later played and coached alongside him...
"This was Australia in the 1960s. We were about five years old at an aboriginal state school with a lot of white kids and one small, Asian-looking kid.
"Eddie was a little bit quieter than most, a little bit shy, but he was definitely one of the boys. Coming through, it was a little bit different to see aboriginal or Asian kids playing rugby union. None of us really expected to make a living out of it.
"It was a private school game and anything out of the ordinary was always going to upset the norm. Eddie got some sledging, but he was the champion at giving it back. If there was something on, Eddie would be in on it.
"He was always right in the middle of it when we were getting in trouble. I remember mucking around in PE class - throwing clothes, shoes and water around the changing rooms - and we got six across the knuckles with the cane.
"Our hands weren't much good for catching balls after that!"

LIVE: Eddie Jones announces team and breaks media silence as Wales hold press conference
Wallaby legend Mark Ella, brother of Glen, and a former schoolfriend and team-mate of Jones...
"We went to kindergarten together and have known each other a long time. Even back then, Eddie was a very smart character.
"He has an extremely witty, at times vicious sense of humour. He was also an accomplished cricketer, and he and David Knox, who went on to play for Australia, were the kings of the sledgers. Oh, his tongue was lethal.
"We used to play indoor cricket, just 20 overs each, but at one point I had to walk away, saying, 'You've got to stop sledging people. We're just supposed to be mucking around.'
"We grew up as knock-around guys. But when he coached Australia, he was far too serious. He didn't sleep, he was over-analysing. Sometimes, when you try too hard, it can backfire on you.
"As a kid, he was a ratbag, a joker. He liked to have a good time, to have a drink. When the authority came, though, he was driving everybody crazy."

World Cup winning Wallaby boss Bob Dwyer, who coached hooker Jones at the Randwick club in Sydney in the 1980s...
"He understood his gifts and his shortcomings. His running skill, agility and balance all negated his slight physical presence. He tackled cleanly and low. He stayed away from the direct impact and just cut the ball-carrier down.
"In possession, he was like a whirling dervish, spinning out of hits and tackles, stepping right, left and keeping a very low body position. By and large, people couldn't get a proper shot at him.
"He calls a spade a shovel, Eddie. I consider myself a very direct Australian, but Eddie is more so than I am. He takes no prisoners at all, and he quickly became known as our lead nickname-bestower.
"For example, Simon Poidevin, our openside, was full of determination and power. So, Eddie christened him 'Venus de Milo' – great body, no hands.
"Eddie is absolutely tireless. Sleep seems to hold no interest for him. While he was in charge of the Wallabies, members of his staff would joke about it.
"One of them got back at around 2am from an evening out and sent a fax over to Eddie, thinking, 'This will be a bit of a laugh'. But he received an immediate reply."

Rita Fin, principal of Australia's first multi-national school, where Jones worked unpaid as a teacher in the late 1980s...
"There weren't many Asians in Australia at that time, so that was one of the reasons he was so passionate about getting the school off the ground, working without a salary.
"He would have copped it a bit at school because he looks different. One of the big ideas at our school was equality and tolerance, so it was probably quite personal.
"A lot of the kids were from mixed marriages and they absolutely loved him. He wasn't the sort of teacher to walk out the door at three o'clock.
"He'd have some after-school clubs and take the kids to kick a ball around in the park. He had a very dry sense of humour, always dropping in one-liners.
"He was never scared to speak his mind in staff meetings and was one of the most efficient guys I've ever worked with. Somehow, he managed a full-time teaching gig as well as all the rugby stuff. He was a bit like a machine."

Former Randwick team-mate and Wallaby star flanker Simon Poidevin...
"We played New Zealand in a tour mach in 1988. There was Eddie, this little half-Japanese hooker, giving it to Sean Fitzpatrick. Sledge, sledge, sledge throughout the whole game.
"He could give an absolutely executing one-liner. Eddie is an ultra-competitive guy. He had been very proud of the fact he remained first choice at Randwick, while Phil Kearns was the up-and-coming star for the Wallabies. Being left out by Australia was pretty chastening for him.
"Many have found it hard to keep up with his demands as a coach. Australia would finish a Test match during the 2003 World Cup, and at 6am the next morning after he would summon a meeting to start again.
"People would ask him, 'Don't you ever switch off?' But I guess that Japanese side of his DNA gives him such a strong drive and resilience.
"Eddie favours an open and expansive game, but there are a lot of modules built around that.
"It is like a jigsaw puzzle. In 1984, Allan Jones' philosophy was to play what was in front of you. Rob McQueen, by contrast, was far more structured, and won a World Cup that way in '99.

"Eddie takes this to a whole different level, where players are told whether they should be on the blindside or the openside during a particular phase.
"There will be five phases of movement before one of Eddie's teams even starts to cut loose. He sets benchmarks that some people just can't get to grips with."
Wallaby centre Rod Kafer, who played under Jones at the Brumbies in the late 1990s...
"Eddie was raw on the coaching scene when he came to the Brumbies after working in Japan. I picked him up from the airport when he arrived in Canberra.
"We were chatting in the car and I said I thought I would have one more year of rugby because I'd had enough.
"Eddie said: 'Look, take your time. Don't make any hasty decisions.' Within another year I'd played my first Test for the Wallabies and then won the World Cup with Australia.
"That is the impact he had on me personally. But he also transformed the Brumbies into playing a game that was unique at the time. It's exactly what he did with Japan – getting them to play in a very distinctive way that suited them.
"Eddie treats every player differently, but he knew the name of your wife and kids virtually from day one. Eddie took an interest and he knew how to extract that top two per cent out of people which is often the difference between winning and losing.
"There are only five or six coaches in world rugby who really know their craft and Eddie's in that top bracket."

Australian captain Stephen Moore, who was given his Test debut by Jones in 2005...
"Eddie is very thorough and always brings a lot of attention to detail.
"He looks at different sports and different teams to see what they do well, making sure that whatever team he's in charge of is at the forefront of the way things are done in sport.
"He's a very professional coach and knows what it takes to win. Eddie's like a global citizen. He's coached all around the world. He's a very professional guy."

Former Wallabies captain James Horwill played under Jones for the Queensland Reds in 2007...
"Eddie joined us having been Wallabies coach for a long time. There was excitement because of his knowledge and experience.
"I was only 21, but lots of our older guys had worked with him in the national set-up. Unfortunately that year with Eddie saw us bottom out as an organisation. We also took that bad beating (92-3) from the Bulls.
"That was a real low and there lots of rants from Eddie in the dressing room. It's one of my darkest memories and I imagine it was the same for Eddie.
"But what's interesting is that, even though the season felt like a disaster, Eddie brought in Will Genia and Quade Cooper out of nowhere. He had a real eye."

Victor Matfield, part of the Springboks team which won the 2007 World Cup when Jones was assistant coach to Jake White...
"Eddie was a great addition and made a real difference, especially to our attacking play as he showed us how to find space. He also helped calm down Jake White as it was a World Cup and Eddie had reached the final four years before.
"It suited Eddie to be the assistant coach – he could concentrate on rugby. After games we would sit and have a few beers with Eddie and he would talk in fascinating detail about rugby. We had some special times with him."
"Before we played Japan at the last World Cup we knew Eddie would be a factor as he is a very good coach. It was still a shock to lose to them – even if they were very well-coached and followed Eddie's plan perfectly."

Bakkies Botha, who shared in South Africa's World Cup triumph...
"Eddie played a bigger role in 2007 than people realise. He brought calmness to the back-line and gave a lot of confidence to the players, bringing the best out of them.
"He's the type of guy who has a big relationship with players and you know what he expects. He brings a lot of calmness to the coaching team. He's an awesome human being and coach.
"He knows what he wants. Just look at the Japan team he coached to victory over the Springboks - they outplayed us through intelligence, not brutality or strength, and that's the type of coach Eddie is."

Michael Owen played under Jones at Saracens...
"He really knew his stuff and everything was run like clockwork. His preparation was meticulous. The depth of detail he went into to was incredible.
"Training would be written down and planned out in minute detail and his analysis was just so spot on. But he also gave us a freedom to play.
"At one of his first meetings I sat through, I remember him saying you can't follow other people, you have to innovate and have your own identity. It was just so impressive the way he spoke.
"He wanted us to have a certain attacking shape, but then anything could happen from it and anyone could play a part no matter what number you had on your back.

"Looking at how the game has developed, you can see a lot of what he was talking about happening now. He could predict the way the game was going. He was just very, very knowledgeable.
"I loved playing for him. He was amazing for me, just brilliant. He was one of the best coaches I played under and he just gave me so much confidence.
"Eddie can upset people. He is demanding and he can be awkward and difficult. He speaks his mind and he can put people's noses out of joint. He wants everybody to be spot on - players, coaches, administrators.
"He won't suffer fools and he is not going to stand for anything. He will be ruthless. With the arrogance he has got, he isn't going to doubt himself. Arrogance can be a positive thing.
"It's not just a case of him shouting off his mouth. He's got real pedigree and a great all round knowledge of the game."

Leigh Jones - defence coach for Japan's memorable World Cup campaign...
"A lot of people had told me he's a very difficult guy to work for. And everything I'd heard was true – he's a tough guy.
"He's workaholic, probably gets by on four or five hours' sleep a day, and he expects his staff to do the same. I'd never worked so hard since I left industry 20 years ago.
"We would start at six in the morning and be pretty much full-on until eight, nine, 10 at night ... but it was so informative working for a guy of that calibre.

"He's just relentless, absolutely relentless, and that's obviously why he's been such a success. I've also never been involved in such an intellectual rugby environment where everything was discussed, analysed at the critical level, measured and then reanalysed; it was a really sophisticated environment.
"Without any doubt the Japanese team were the fittest team I've ever worked with. I've never seen a group of players pushed so hard, and almost questioned Eddie at times if he was pushing them too hard.
"He drove the Japan players harder than I've ever seen a group of players driven before."
Eddie Jones
Luke Thompson who played in Jones' Japan team at the World Cup...
"We were really well prepared coming into 2015 and had real belief. We had trained so hard and very scientifically.
"But to beat South Africa and win three out of four matches was really satisfying. Against South Africa we stuck to Eddie's game-plan really well and the longer it went on the more we believed.
"Basically Eddie told us the longer we stick with them the more they'll think – and the more they think they less they'll play.
"The Japan players probably won't miss the training sessions. Some players might not like him, but you don't mind so much when you get the results."
Eddie Jones, who masterminded Japan's win against South Africa
England No 8 Billy Vunipola...
"Eddie has been really good for me since he came in. He has just filled me with confidence and that's something I thrive on.
"People aren't told to act in a certain way. It is the freedom to express yourself. I am not having a dig at anyone, but I can go out there and play my game, try to impose myself in any way I can.
"Eddie has given me that freedom and that is something I thrive on, getting the ball in my hands early, trying to make things happen, also in defence trying to smash people.
"His praise means you are not walking through corridors, head down not wanting to talk. He is encouraging me to do everything. I am fitter, too.
"That is the best three games I have put together for England. Everyone else is a bit different and quicker and more agile, but I'm working every day to get better and to try and get closer to those at the top.
"They're very good players and I want to be in that same bracket."
